New hud and animations have ruined dbd for me

The new hud is so bad, everything is so spaced out apart and you honestly don’t even pay attention to the stats of survivors health due to the fact it’s so out of the way and you literally have to force yourself to look at it.

don’t even get me started with these new survivor animations, there a downgrade in anyway. it was said that they wouldn’t affect gameplay but new locomotion have removed 360°, dukes, made looping feel not as smooth and have just ruined the survivor experience.


thanks devs for ruining killer and survivor then just straight up ruining playing survivor.

    True, maybe in a future update they'll change it to be more modern, and actually fit the aesthetics of the game. Maybe a nice, compact area where you can see everything at a glance, and it won't clutter the whole, tiny FOV of the killer up and be distracting.

    Wait a minute...

    Yeah not sure I'm going to be able to adjust to this. A few changes sure but I'd rather not be focusing on 7 different spots on my screen to have all info as killer.

    Agree,the new animations look horrible and the new HUD is like really stressful for my eyes.

    Even if i make the HUD as small as possible it's still extremely distracting having something on every side of the screen to the point that i have to take a break after just a few games

    So why would it matter if you can do them? You should be able to turn in a complete circle, that's like saying killers shouldn't be able to moonwalk.

    The new UI is so bad it made me register to the forums to complain about it.

    It feels all over the place.

    When playing survivor and not using items, the bottom left of your screen is empty. Feels and looks imbalanced.

    Character portraits feel out of place. Struggle-meter is too small and hard to see.

    i came here to say exactly this, i was open minded and hopeful that maybe it'd feel more natural than it was on the PTB but it's just so clunky. movement itself feels more sluggish like every survivor's on a casual morning jog and the killer chasing behind them with murderous intent is purely incidental, and somehow standing still, now firmly upright, isn't any better.

    ever since they mentioned updating survivor animations i looked forward to it. be careful what you wish for i guess 💀

    In the current version, the action of the character is lifeless and stiff! Ask to go back to the previous version.😭
